After considerably broadening their sound on Waiting for the Sun, the Doors decided to continue pushing the envelope with their next release, The SOFT PARADE. Incorporating a nasty but melodic edge, The Soft Parade is easily the most challenging album in the Doors' catalog--if not the most accomplished. Though the hit "Touch Me" and other tracks ("Shaman's Blues," and "Wild Child") hearken back to the band's edgier self, the title track is a multipart rock suite that evokes the awakening of the beast in Jimbo Morrison some of the psychedelic era's most ear-popping. "Wishful Sinful" serves up some uncharacteristic melancholy, while the tour-de-force epic The Soft Parade showcases tuneful varied blends that end in Morrison's gone mad ravings... howling at the moon
